Lookalikes With Contrasting Personalities – “The Crowned Clown” (2019)
Yeo Jin-Goo takes on two roles, an arrogant, crazy king and a clown here.
The arrogant king Lee Hun is shrewd and he’s aware of the political fights in the palace, but his mind is only filled with ways to survive on his own. In which, when he realizes that holding onto his throne threatens his life, he abandons everything without hesitating. That includes his love, the queen.
In contrast, the clown Ha Sun is forced into taking over the throne for Lee Hun and was asked to die in his stead. As Ha Sun learns more about the politics going on in the palace, he doesn’t try to abandon everything just to survive alone. Instead, he thinks of ways to save everyone, including commoners.

Boy Searching For His Older Brother Who’s Into Aliens – “Circle: Two Worlds Connected” (2017)
Of course, that’s not everything.
The complex drama tackles problems that set one thinking, and Yeo Jin-Goo plays a major part in it. Should painful memories be erased? What makes a person, somebody? Their memories, experiences, or consciousness?

Popular High School Boy – “Orange Marmalade” (2015)
“Orange Marmalade” is a romance drama between the popular boy in school, Jung Jae-Min (Yeo Jin-Goo), and a vampire girl Baek Ma-Ri (Seol Hyun) who doesn’t want to stand out.
The drama has sweet romantic scenes between the leads, but took a slightly weird turn when it went historical after a few episodes. Although the historical parts are debatable, it’s still a good drama overall.

Playful Crown Prince – “The Moon Embracing the Sun” (2012)
Playing as the younger version of Lee Hwon, Yeo Jin-Goo is a crown prince who falls for the intelligent and wise girl Heo Yeon-Woo (Kim Yoo-Jung).
At the same time, he also gives her brother, Heo Yeom who is his teacher, a hard time by not taking his lessons seriously.
FOR VIEWERS WHO: would like to reminisce the days when Yeo Jin-Goo was still playing as child versions of the main leads.
